Infinite ammo, is it possible?

[Dael 0]

Hi! Working with a new OFP MP Map, which is supposed to have a sentry gun with infinite ammo in the middle. There has to be a way to "refill" ammo in an M2 if it runs out of ammo, for example "if ammo=0, set ammo=500" or something of the sort. The M2 is classed as an armored vehicle, and not like a handheld weapon, I think that is why I cannot find the weapon nor the name of the ammo on Lustypoohs Command List...

Suggestions for a script, anyone?

P.S. No Resistance or anything, the only Flashpoint working on school computers is the good ol' Flashpoint 1.00... Back to basic =)

Dunno if eventhandlers work in 1.00... but try

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">addeventhandler ["fired", {_this select 0 addmagazine (_this select 4)}]

no, eventhandlers was a new editor feature of Resistance, it does not exist in 1.0 - 1.46

But, instead of making a script to refill ammo , how about adding a lot of browning magazine , this way you will have to fire a very long time to empty the M2

Put in the init line of a M2 the following (copy paste with CTRL+C and CTRL+V)

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">this addmagazine "Browning"; this addmagazine "Browning"; this addmagazine "Browning"; this addmagazine "Browning"; this addmagazine "Browning"; this addmagazine "Browning";this addmagazine "Browning"; this addmagazine "Browning"; this addmagazine "Browning"; this addmagazine "Browning"; this addmagazine "Browning"; this addmagazine "Browning"

This way you will have 12 full magazines of 500 bullets each already placed in the M2.

Every time you or the AI soldier will have fired 500 bullets, another magazine is placed automatically , without stoping your continued fire.

Or you could time a loop that would add another magazine every x seconds/minutes.

i think Sanctuarys sugestion is the easiest one.

[Harnu 0]

Bah, I could drain 6,000 bullets in now time

Harnu's is more practical. Just make a little script like this:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">#loop

mgun1 addmagazine "Browning"

~20

goto "loop"

Okay, I stand corrected

edit: Some typos and .. stuff

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">#loop

mgun1 addmagazine "Browning"

~20

goto "loop"

I never tested this, but is there a limit on the maximum number of magazines that can be added to a weapon like this M2 ?

If there is a limit, maybe this loop script can lead to some crash.

Maybe

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">#loop

?(("_x == {browning}" count (magazines mgun1)) < 5): mgun1 addmagazine "browning"

~20

goto "loop"

Syntax not guaranteed.

sry for bumping this topic, but when i use that, it says, no entry config.bin/bulletsingew of whatever, and when i use an addons it does the same with another name

help me plz, i really need this...

[MrZig 0]

Well that wouldn't even work for an m2, cause if you fired 5 times it would add 5 mags, that's too much and might crash the game.

sh*t, and theres nothing else, exept that ammorefill script for unlimited ammo?

Yikes, your bombarding the poor guy with so many large scripts, when you can just do it with a trigger! In the condition field put<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">! SomeAmmo MgunWhere Mgun is the name of the gun, and in the activation field put <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">Mgun addmagazine "Browning"Set the trigger to repeadedly, and your set.

Dunno if eventhandlers work in 1.00... but try

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">addeventhandler ["fired", {_this select 0 addmagazine (_this select 4)}]

WHAT!!! your only using 1.00 is that your version of ofp...

if so lol u need to upgrade to res.

Quote[/b] ]! SomeAmmo Mgun

Where Mgun is the name of the gun, and in the activation field put Code Sample

Quote[/b] ]Mgun addmagazine "Browning"

Set the trigger to repeadedly, and your set.

that works
